Musical Truths
Ok, so as we walked into the gym this morning (at 5:45 I want to remind you), Rebekah and I were greeted to “Final Countdown” by Europe. Man, I haven’t heard that song in awhile. However, as soon as I heard it, I immediately thought of watching an NBA game with the home team down by 1 with 10 seconds left. The coach calls a time out to set up the perfect play. While the teams huddle, “Final Countdown” plays on the loudspeaker as the home crowd gets shivers hoping for a win. Man, you there is something special in music when a song like that can bring to mind such a vivid picture.
So, I started thinking about some other songs that bring an image to mind:
“Time After Time” makes me think of David and Liz’s wedding video.
“Everything I Do, I Do It For You” makes me want to shoot an arrow.
“Dance Dance” by Fallout Boy makes me think of Duke Basketball (they played it as the halftime intro on TV once).
“Collide” by Howie Day makes me think of Rebekah (it is her ring tone after all).
Ok, so that is a little list to get you into my mind. What songs bring up images to you? Sorry, there is nothing profound here, just thought it would be fun.

Okay, this may date me -
“Footloose” makes me want to be driving down a highway at 75 mph while straddling two vehicles.
“William Tell Overture” makes me wish other people would look at me and say “Who was that masked man”.
“What Would You Do” (don’t know title)makes me want to be Michael Keaton rolling in an office chair.
“Flight of the Bumblebees” makes me miss Bruce Lee.
“Canon in D Minor” (?) makes me teary since I’ve seen my three boys get married.
“Kung Fu Fighting” and “Eye of the Tiger” makes me think of Stone Mtn, first time I heard them – or paid attention…
Any Carptenter song makes me feel blessed because we played three of them when I married my beautiful wife.
